The day after McGwire broke Maris' record, I walked into a baseball card shop and sold about 150 McGwire cards for a few hundred dollars. One of the smartest decisions I ever made with cardboard.
Never buy modern cards when the player is hot. The prices always come down. Time to sell Puig, not buy him. Put another way, the prices reflect what you would pay if the guy is a moderate Hall of Famer in 20 years. Much more likely he's the next Ruben Sierra or Andruw Jones....
